There are a lot of funny things you can do at 1am in the morning especially when you are spending time with a good friend who also happens to be a photographer. And when Julie asked me about lightning, the best I could do to explain was to demonstrate how things are done. So we pushed the sofa around in my living room so that we could make use of the (somewhat) white wall and I whipped out a speedlite and a small softbox.

I then posed Julie while explaining how I was working around with this setup.

It was indeed a lot of fun and hopefully I wasn’t too bad at giving explanations, as I love sharing tips. For the story, this was shot in a matter of minutes, one light, one (somewhat) white wall, and about maybe two meters of backspace.

I just love Ludivine and Yaniss. Obviously I just adore the relationship they have. But most of all what I really love is that in some ways they are so geeky.

They are into videogames, anime, geek culture and all of this. They totally assume this fact and let me say that I just back them up 200%! (Faithful readers will just shrug knowing how geeky understanding I am)

They live their lives to their fullest and they teach their kids how to follow their passions while still being responsible.

Their engagement session was just how I imagined it would be: crazy, inpredictable and still full of beautiful moments. And you will see shortly that it also perfectly reflected how their wedding was to be!

Thanh and Gregory met one year ago in a train station and they are very very much in love with each other. When we had a little time just the three of us to shoot their couple pictures, they couldn’t stay apart from each other, and it was so cute.

They wanted this wedding to reflect who they were as individuals and as a couple, they wanted to incorporate aspects of Asian and French culture into it. They wanted to celebrate their families, their traditions and their friends. It was full of very beautiful, touching and happy memories, and that’s when I see such beautiful moments that I realize how I love my job.
